It is time for a party. You’ve reached your first goal and you can be very satisfied about that. Look around you what you’ve achieved and feel proud about that. You did a job well done with this project. First you had a plan, then you built the foundation and next you did the house. Slowly but surely you kept an eye for what you wanted to achieve. Now that you’ve done what you planned you can feel satisfaction. Your practical plan brought you far. 

What a good feeling it must be to come home from a hard day’s work. This card shows you that feeling. You’re finally in your place. This is what you wanted and this is what you’ve manifested for yourself. This could only happen because you had a vision of how it should be. 

The Four of Wands is a card that asks you to organize a party and to look at what is going well. From that satisfying feeling you can go much further than having to force yourself to go faster or do better. That little bit of excitement that you feel when you reach your destination is what keeps you going. In a way you’ve reached that goal. 

This is the card of ultimate freedom. Free to be who you are, free to do what you need to do and free to connect with whom you love. Celebrate that connection and look at the love that is between you. If you think you’re stuck make use of the Four of Wands to find your personal freedom. It doesn’t mean that you have to divorce or anything, just finding that feeling of more freedom without any boundaries.
